of good figure and quite prepoSscss.nS.
She will sit on one OF the park settees

rivcted upon the magnificent equestrian
statue of the deceased general Iwen-
ty-six years ago Miss Emily Holman,
one of the richest bellies OF Baltimore,
while visiting out west. met AMI lei! IN
love with Gen. Mcpherson, and they
became aflianced The general was en-
gagged in the war and could not spare
time for the wedding, besides the we'll
known southern sympath!cs OF the
Hoffmans proved another cause OF the
postponement of the wedding. The
dark DAYS of strife continued, and the
general fell in battle with the miniature

Proportion Of Deaths by Lightning.

The yearly average number OF deaths
from lightning in England is twenty
three, or four and four-tenths per ice
600 deaths. AS general rule il seems
that unless persons are killed on the
spot by lightning they recover. \ per
son struck by lightning is more or less
stunned, and deprived of consciousness
for time, often, no doubt, BY mere
fright, in which case the effect is tram
sient; but sometimes in consequence Of
shock given to the brain, in which
case there is certain amount OF paral-
vsis of motion and sensation. Inc ap-
pearanccs after death OF bodies which
have been struck by lightning vary ex-
tremelv. Sometimes they retain the
position which they occupied WREN
struck: while in other cases they ma;
be dashed to 4 considerable distance.
Their clothes are often burnt on torn.
and have a peculiar singed smell.
Metallic substances about the body pre-
seut signs OF fusion. while such rs are
composed of steel become magnetic.

WEDNESDAY, April G-P. VI.


There seems TO be among rail way oncials a wonderful
unanimty OF disposition to give TO the fourth section
long and short hauof Interstate Commerce act the
narrowest possible construction until its true intent
and meaning shall he defined by the Commission or by
judicial authority They not assuming TO give inter
probation the worls Of the act: under substantially
similar circumstances ana conditions" And therefore
where there exists competition, and Mt central
points Of competing railways running by different routes
to some other central point, the request i almost uni
versal that under tho poyislonary power Delegated 10
the Commission the operations of the section be sGs
pendcd. Enough has been already established 10
make it evident that honest railway arrangements are
glad to be restrained from the granting Of free passes
and the payments of commissions passenger tickets
These two heavy upon earnings have been greatly
abused in the past and the prohibition IN the future VIII
work for the benefit OF both railways ana the general
public g. r. Putnaus Sons advertise the second clifton
of "Au Analyst. the Interstate Commerce Act by John
r. Dos Passos which Will help officials and layMcn to
understand its provisions and obligations
In the stock market this was another
day of heavy realizing and consequent
further reaction in prices Yet the net decline from the
highest OF the week generally il not greater than an
ordinary nuctuaton The sales amounted TO $4,000
shares against j23 500 yesterday making Tor the
three DAYS OF the week over 10000 shares The old
market is selling and taking its profit on the first adj
vance; the market buys within small range Oh
figures with confidence in future profit In That respect
the difference between the present market ana tat ol
ten DAYS ago is marked Then 10 such large real
ization could have been made within range OF to
per cent and to-day, three days of good business
the market is called heavy on decline OF per
cent from the best figures. The speculation
opened active with some general improve

The general market yielded TO offerings TO the extent o
